The FRANCOGYN group, a French national research network for gynecological and oncological surgery, conducts clinical research on pelvic cancers. It has evolved to include prospective studies and influence clinical practice guidelines.
Area of Science:
- Oncology
- Gynecological Surgery
- Clinical Research
Context:
- Established in December 2015, FRANCOGYN unites over 17 French departments in gynecological and oncological surgery.
- The group focuses on clinical research for gynecological pelvic cancers.
Purpose:
- To describe the formation and evolution of the FRANCOGYN group.
- To present its current research activities and future development in gynecological oncology.
Summary:
- FRANCOGYN has built retrospective cohorts and is now undertaking prospective randomized research funded by national grants.
- The network's work influences clinical practice recommendations for gynecological cancers.
Impact:
- Facilitates national collaboration and reflection on surgical management of pelvic cancers in women.
- Contributes to numerous international reference publications in the field.
